What’s New
No major guideline updates in the last 6
months
Case 1
51yo Ethiopian female, immigrated to the U.S. in August, 2013, admitted in October with cough, dyspnea, and weight loss, found to have a new diagnosis of HIV (CD4 21, VL 2 million c/mL) as well as pulmonary TB (culture-confirmed). HIV genotype was wild-type, and she was treatment naïve.
She was started on RIPE, and ~two weeks later on Atripla. Discharged in stable condition
She returned to the hospital 8 days later with fever to 38.6C, tachycardia, hypoxia, and worsening pleuritic chest pain and cough
CT chest showed increased cavitation of mediastinal lymph nodes and larger bilateral pleural effusions
HIV RNA had declined to 6684 c/mL, although she had to self-discontinue Atripla due to nausea. CD4 count unchanged.
IRIS/IRD
Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS)
◦ Also referred to as immune reconstitution disease (IRD)
“Paradoxical” IRIS - Worsening of a recognized OI
“Unmasking” IRIS – Symptoms from an unrecognized
pre-existing OI that manifest in the setting of improving
immunologic function.

Incidence Study Type Incidence
Michelet, et al. AIDS. 1998 Retrospective 68%
French, et al. HIV Med. 2000 Retrospective 25%
Ratnam, et al. CID. 2006 Retrospective 23%
Murdoch, et al. AIDS. 2008 Prospective 10%
Grant, et al. PLoS One. 2010 Prospective 7.6%
Muller, et al. Lancet Infect Dis. 2010 Meta-analysis 13%
Previously diagnosed OI Incidence of IRIS
Kaposi’s Sarcoma 6.4%
Herpes Zoster 12.2%
TB 15.7%
PML 16.7%
Cryptococcal meningitis 19.5%
CMV retinitis 37.7%
Risk Factors:
CD4 count < 100
Disseminated infection (high antigenic
burden)
Shorter interval between initiating
treatment for OI and starting HAART
Younger age
Rapidity and magnitude of virological
response to ART
Fungal infection (other than PJP)
Timing:
Highly variable
As little as 3 days after initiation of HAART, up to 3 months or longer
IRD can occur early due to the immediate improvement in immune function that occurs with virologic suppression
For the ID board exams – remember 2-4 weeks
Diagnosis:
No strict diagnostic criteria, diagnosis
based on degree of clinical suspicion
Case Definition (INSHI)
1. Response to anti-retroviral therapy by: ◦ a. receiving HIV anti-retroviral therapy and;
◦ b. virologic response with >1 log10 copies/mL decrease in HIV RNA (if available).
2. Clinical deterioration of an infectious or inflammatory condition temporally related to ART initiation.
3. Symptoms cannot be explained by: ◦ a. expected clinical course of a previously recognized
and successfully treated infection
◦ b. medication side effect or toxicity
◦ c. treatment failure
◦ d. complete non-adherence.
Challenges:
Diagnosis is clinically challenging, one must
differentiate from:
◦ Progression of the initial OI
antimicrobial resistance
treatment failure for any reason, including poor
adherence
◦ Development of a new OI
◦ Unrelated organ dysfunction
◦ Drug toxicity
Allergic Reaction – Abacavir Hypersensitivity
IRIS SYNDROMES
Clinical Manifestations:
Symptoms are diverse and have not been
defined precisely
Usually characterized by:
◦ Fever
◦ Worsening of the clinical manifestations of
underlying OI.

Viruses
◦ PML
◦ CMV
◦ Herpes virus VZV

Case 2
50 y/o man with HIV, CD4 initially 16, VL 2 million, PPD neg
Started on HAART
Returned to clinic with tender lump in axilla one month later
◦ 1 x 2 cm, firm mass, almost cystic
◦ No overlying cellulitis
◦ CD4 up to 192, VL down to 4K
Referred to FNA clinic, around which time it had started to drain
Sample was sent for culture, AFB stain negative
2 months later culture found to be growing MAC.
MAC-IRIS Incidence ~ 3.5% among patients with CD4 < 100
Median time to onset of *symptoms is 3 weeks after ART initiation
Usually unmasking of subclinical disease (75% of cases)
Peripheral lymphadenitis
• Enlarged lymph node
• Draining sinus
• Less than half with fever
Pulmonary thoracic disease
• Fever
• Night sweats
• Cough
• Dyspnea
• CT findings
• Mediastinal lymphadenopathy
• Parenchymal infiltrates
• Cavitary lesions
• Nodules
Intra-abdominal disease
• Fever
• Night sweats
• Abdominal pain
• CT findings
• Intra-abdominal lymphadenopathy
Phillips P, et al. CID. 2005
Riddell J, et al. J Translational Med. 2007
MAC-IRIS: Management
Anti-mycobacterial therapy
◦ Azithromycin + ethambutol (+/- rifabutin)
For moderate-severe IRIS
◦ Initial treatment with NSAIDs (CIII)
◦ If no improvement, prednisone 20-40 mg daily
for 4-8 weeks (CII)
Relapse is common after stopping
steroids
Symptoms may persist up to 6 months
TB, HIV, and IRIS
HIV and TB co-infection
◦ Pulmonary disease
◦ Lymphadenitis
◦ Intracranial tuberculomas/meningitis
◦ Cutaneous lesions
◦ Peritonitis
◦ Epididymitis/Prostatitis
◦ Cystitis
◦ Granulomatous nephritis/hepatitis
◦ Osteomyelitis
TB-IRIS Can occur with treatment of TB in the
absence of ART
◦ Release of new antigen targets during mycobacterial killing
◦ Restoration of TB-induced immunosuppression
Incidence for patients started on ART is ~ 15%. Time to onset is typically 2-4 weeks
◦ Resolution of symptoms in ~ 3 months
◦ Generally paradoxical IRIS (except in developing countries where the diagnosis may be missed)
Meintjes, et al. Clin Chest Med. 2009
Worsening radiographic
infiltrate
(50% of patients starting ART)
Enlarging serous effusions
Enlarging lymph node
Fever
A) Time of diagnosis of TB
B) 3 weeks after ART initiation
Meintjes, et al. Clin Chest Med. 2009
TB-IRIS: Management
Continue HAART and continue RIPE
Prednisone 1.5 mg/kg/day x 2 weeks,
followed by 0.75 mg/kg/day x 2 weeks
◦ This steroid regimen was evaluated in a
randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled
trial
◦ Decreases hospital days (p=0.04), and
improves both symptoms and chest
radiographs at 2 and 4 weeks
Meintjes, et al. AIDS. 2010
TB-IRIS: Management
For some patients, 4 weeks is insufficient,
and DHHS guidelines suggest that
tapering steroids over 3 months may be
considered (BIII)
NSAIDs may be considered for mild TB-
IRIS (CIII)
Needle aspiration of effusions for
symptomatic relief
Reminder: Steroids Up Front
Patients with TB of the CNS or pericardium should receive adjunctive steroids at the time RIPE is initiated (A1)

CNS TB1
• Dexamethasone 0.4 mg/kg/day x 4 weeks
• Taper 0.1 mg/kg/day per week x 4 weeks
• Taper 1 mg/day per week x 4 weeks
Pericardial TB2
• Prednisone 60 mg daily, tapered by 10 mg every week x 6 weeks

finding difficulty R hemiparesis and
seizure. CD4 48.
LP + JC Virus on PCR
Started on HAART
2.5 months later presented with
worsening aphasia and had repeat
MRI. CD4 225, VL undetectable.
HAART held x 2 wks, pt treated with

2.5 yrs later, only mild residual word-
finding deficit.
Case and images from Tan and Koralnik. Lancet Neurol. 2010
PML-IRIS HIV+ patients co-infected
with JC virus with CD4 < 200 may develop Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)
10 – 20% of pts develop new or worsening neurologic symptoms following initiation of HAART.
Tan et al. Neurology. 2009
Classic PML
PML-IRIS
FLAIR sequence T1 post-Gadolinium
Tan and Koralnik. Lancet Neurol. 2010
PML-IRIS
Mediated by an influx of CD8+ T-cells into
existing lesions
◦ JCV actually less likely to be detected in CSF
IRIS with PML doesn’t seem to alter survival
(1 yr survival rate 54% vs 49% in PML-IRIS
vs PML without IRIS).
Marzocchetti, et al. Neurology. 2009
PML-IRIS: Management
There are no effective anti-viral drugs for JCV ◦ Continue HAART (AIII)
Steroids are controversial, but recommended for patients with contrast-enhancing lesions on MRI (BIII). ◦ Methylprednisolone 1 gm IV daily x 3 days
◦ Prednisone 60 mg PO daily, tapered over 6 weeks
Greatest benefit of steroids is seen when: ◦ Started early after recognition of IRIS
◦ Tapered over a prolonged course (6-12 weeks)
Tan, et al. Neurology. 2009
CMV and IRIS Immune reconstitution disease occurs in patients with
inactive CMV retinitis who begin ART
◦ Immune recovery uveitis (IRU) Anterior uveitis
Vitritis
Cystoid macular edema
Epiretinal membranes
Retinal neovascularization
The most common OI to result in immune reconstitution disease following ART initiation (~38% incidence)
Symptoms:
◦ Anterior chamber: ocular pain and photophobia
◦ Posterior chamber: painless floaters and decreased visual acuity
Risk Factors for IRU
CMV involving >30% retinal surface area
at the highest risk
Treatment of CMV retinitis with cidofovir
compared to an alternative regimen
Almost exclusively occurs in patients with
immune recovery to CD4 > 100
◦ Does not occur in patients with a virologic
response but no immune recovery
Goldberg, et al. Retina. 2005
Goldberg, et al. Retina. 2005
Management of IRU/IRV
Corticosteroids and
anti-CMV therapy (CIII)
Anterior chamber:
topical corticosteroids
Posterior chamber:
periocular or
intravitreal
corticosteroid
injections
Kosobucki, et al. Am J Ophthalmol. 2004
IRIS and Cryptococcus:
~20% of patients with cryptococcal meningitis and HIV develop IRIS after initiation of ART.
Presentation ◦ Meningeal (73.7%)
◦ Other CNS complications (11%)
◦ Lymphadenopathy (11%)
◦ Pneumonitis (4.5%)
Timing: delayed compared to TB (1-10 months)
The key CSF findings are elevated opening pressure and elevated CSF WBC, with sterile cultures
Haddow LJ, et al. Lancet Infect Dis. 2010
Risk factors for C-IRIS
Fungal burden (initial CrAg titer)
Lack of initial CSF inflammation (CSF
WBC < 25 cells/µL and protein < 50
mg/dL)
Early HAART initiation*
Baseline HIV viral load and baseline CD4
do not appear to be risk factors
Sungkanuparph S, et al. CID. 2009
Bicanic T, et al. JAIDS. 2009
Boulware DR, et al. JID. 2010
C-IRIS: Management
Continue ART
Continue anti-fungal therapy ◦ Re-induction with amphotericin B is unnecessary
if CSF cultures are negative
Reduce ICP with serial LP (AII)
For severe symptoms, a brief course of corticosteroids may be considered (CIII)
IRIS has been shown to increase mortality from cryptococcal meningitis, mainly in Africa
Kaposi’s Sarcoma and IRIS
High-risk of IRIS with KS
◦ Characterized by enlarging lesions and worsening peripheral edema
Visceral KS-IRIS can have mortality up to 50%
Visceral KS
Mucocutaneous KS
TB
PJP
Achenbach CJ, et al. CID. 2012
KS-IRIS: Management
Continue HAART (AIII)
Do not give steroids
◦ Causes growth of the tumor
Chemotherapy is indicated for visceral KS (AI)
and can be considered for severe cutaneous KS
(BIII)
Preventing IRIS
The strongest risk factor for developing
IRIS is a baseline CD4 < 100
The optimal time to initiate ART is before
the patient develops advanced AIDS
Initiation of ART in the setting of Acute OI:
Advantages
For some OI’s, initiation of ART is the only effective treatment ◦ Cryptosporidiosis
◦ Microsporidiosis
◦ Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)
◦ KS
Starting ART as secondary prevention: a second OI is less likely to occur if ART is started promptly rather than delaying initiation.
ART malabsorption subtherapeutic serum levels antiretroviral drug resistance
ART toxicities vs. disease manifestations vs. OI drug toxicities
Drug-drug interactions between ART and other antimicrobials
Renal or hepatic dysfunction from acute OIs complicated ART dosing

1. ART is recommended for all HIV-infected patients with TB (AI)
2. ART should be started within 2 weeks of TB treatment for patients
with a CD4 count < 50 (AI)
3. For all others ART may be delayed 8-12 weeks (AI)
4. ART should be delayed in patients with TB meningitis
Extremely Early ART with TB?
TB-HAART (CD4 < 200)
◦ Randomized to start ART at week 1, 4, or 8
◦ No survival benefit to starting ART 1 week
after TB therapy
◦ Among patients who died during the trial:
higher rate of TB treatment interruption due
to hepatotoxicity in the week 1 group
Crypto: Timing of ART
Zimbabwe study (Makadzange, et al, 2010)
• Early initiation of ART (within 72 hours) versus delayed (>10 weeks) resulted in higher mortality (HR 2.85)
• Cryptococcal meningitis was treated with fluconazole 800 mg daily
Botswana study (Bisson, et al, 2013)
• Early ART (within 7 days) versus delayed (> 28 days) did not improve the rate of fungal clearance from CSF
• Early ART resulted in a higher rate of IRIS (54% versus 0%)
• Cryptococcal meningitis was treated with amphotericin B 0.7 mg/kg x 14 days
COAT study (Boulware, et al, 2014)
• Terminated early by the DSMB
• The patients randomized to early ART (1-2 weeks) versus delayed ART (5 weeks) had substantially higher mortality at 26 weeks (45% versus 30%, p=0.03)
• Cryptococcal meningitis was treated with amphotericin B 0.7 mg/kg + fluconazole 800 mg daily x 14 days
When to Start ART During Acute OIs
Early Treatment (< 2 wks):
Pneumocystis pneumonia
Toxoplasma gondii encephalitis
Mycobacterium avium complex disease
CMV disease
Esophageal candidiasis
Bacterial
TB (CD4 < 50 cells/μL)
Delay Treatment:
• TB (CD4 > 50)
• Delay 8-12 weeks
• TB meningitis
• Delay 8-12 weeks
• Cryptococcal
meningitis
• Delay 2-10 weeks
Summary Incidence of IRIS ~10-15%.
Know the risk factors for IRIS (CD4 < 100)
Presentation varies depending on the OI
Start HAART within 2 weeks of initiation of OI treatment.
◦ TB – start within 2 weeks if CD4 <50, otherwise delay 8-12 weeks
◦ TB meningitis – delay 8-12 weeks regardless of CD4
◦ Cryptococcal meningitis – delay 2-10 weeks
Management of IRIS
◦ NSAIDs and steroids
◦ Continue HAART
Prevention: initiate HAART before the development of advanced AIDS
